About Regina
Regina Angelo-Tarango uses attachment-aware and cognitive approaches to help people manage stress and relationship strain. She is a licensed Marriage and Family Therapist in California and brings 17 years of clinical experience to sessions.
Background and approach
Regina focuses on clear goals and practical steps so people can move forward from painful experiences. She offers a calm, nonjudgmental space where people can talk through trauma, grief, and major life changes.
Sessions often focus on how early relationships affect current patterns. Regina helps people notice unhelpful thoughts and test new ways of relating to themselves and others.
Her background includes a broad mix of approaches such as attachment-based work, client-centered methods, cognitive behavioral tools, mindfulness, and motivational interviewing. That mix lets her tailor sessions to problems like anxiety, depression, panic, and parenting stress.
She also supports those facing adoption or foster care questions, caregiver strain, and multicultural concerns. In practical terms, Regina uses short exercises, reflective conversation, and gentle problem-solving during sessions.
She can help with intimacy issues, commitment concerns, anger, and rebuilding self-esteem after loss or trauma. Work often combines noticing patterns with small experiments to try between sessions.
People who reach out can expect straightforward talk about next steps and strategies they can use right away. Regina centers each person’s goals and moves at a pace they find manageable.
Therapeutic approaches adapted for online care
Regina often uses attachment-based work to look at how early relationships shape current patterns. This approach helps people understand closeness, trust, and recurring conflicts in relationships. She also uses cognitive behavioral therapy to identify unhelpful thoughts and test new thinking and behaviors. CBT is useful for anxiety, panic, depression, and changing daily habits.Finding the right approach is part of the work together. Regina collaborates with each person to choose methods that match their goals and preferences. She adjusts tools and homework based on how someone responds and what fits their life rhythm.
Online therapy is offered through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging to make care easier to fit into busy days. Video is good for fuller conversation and nonverbal cues. Phone sessions work when bandwidth is limited or a shorter check-in is needed. Live chat and messaging can be useful for quick updates, brief coaching, or when shifting schedules make regular sessions harder to keep. These options help people stay consistent and try techniques between sessions.
